January Week 1 Card Challenge

[Janice]

Here is the first challenge for 2007!

I am sure we all have lots of Thank You cards to make, so how about this as a simple starter....

Lets see what you come up with

LOL - you post a picture in this thread so we can all see your creation, and then you either use it or save it. I find I make cards 'last minute' most of the time, so these challenges help me to build up a 'reserve' of cards

[Sky]

cool thanks
i find i have alot of cards but nowhere to send them!!!! i do workshops at work and usaully end up with cards that really aren't my 'thing' coz i have to do different things to apeel to my customers!!!!!

[Janice]

I know what you mean - I have some from classes I've taught and stuff for magazines etc. I have just kept them in a box 'just in case' LOL

I sometimes bundle up half a dozen or so and send them to my Mother in Law - she loves them. In fact, when we visited her this Christmas she has about 4 Christmas cards of mine standing on her mantle shelf. I said to her that I didnt remember sending her all of them over past Christmas's and she replied....... "you didnt, they were in that box of stuff you gave me, I loved them so kept them to put out" Bless her!

Are they doing the empty bags for putting your cards in again this year then?

[xxpaddler]

I saw some empty bags when I was in a crafts central yesterday. I was trying so hard not to spend any money that I did not check it out properly!
BTW.. I was successful - went to a craft shop and did not spend one penny!
